26. Ariane Gorin of Expedia Group (FULL SHOW)
Microsoft might be considered a very different type of large corporation from a major online travel agency such as Expedia Group.
But, as most people know, travel's global web giant was created as a unit within the Microsoft empire in the mid-1990s, before being spun out via a public listing in 1999.
There are many similarities between the two brands.
Over two decades on Expedia's formation in the U.S., Ariane Gorin is one of very few executives at the OTA that also had a successful career at the IT company.
The president of Expedia Business Services joined Expedia in 2013 after a decade with Microsoft and has since been involved in a number of big initiatives around the business.
